Re: Nobody would be complaining about Mormeck if Wlad was fighting four times a year!

I'm 100% sure people here still would have complained in that case.
There are a couple of guys here that jump on every oppertunity to bash the brothers no matter what they do. If you hate them, you hate them and nothing they do will change that.

At his age and given that every fight is a huge event, I think twice a year is fine. Its pretty normal for the champ to do so. I bet he fights 3 times next year though. Even if he doesn't, I'm fine with it as long as the fights are made with top 10 guys. Hopefully Aerreola, Helenius or Povetkin step up.

I like Wlad, and would complain about Mormeck as an opponent even if he was sandwiched between defenses a month before and a month after.

The champ's activity is irrelevant. 39 year old Jean Marc Mormeck should not be competing for a world heavyweight championship.. Slogging through wins over a handful of guys who themselves would have no business whatsoever competing for a world heavyweight championship doesn't earn him that right. This is a complete mismatch.

Hell, Wlad could fight earlier the same night and it would still be a complete mismatch and a sham of a world title bout.

But its not like many willing heavyweights are deserving of that shot, imo wlad's most important fight was haye and he took care of it, some other guy said wlad chose mormeck to target France as a potential market to further increase the Klitschko popularity in Europe, maybe thats one of the reasons why he got chosen?
I would have prefered arreola in the US though.
